Hi all!
I'm in the process of buying a 2300sqft house that currently at 2nd fix finish so have a great deal of 'finishing' to organise.
We got I'm a highly recommended tiler to give us a quote for tiling 1 bathroom, 2 ensuites, a large hall and kitchen area and although he hasn't gotten back with quotes yet one thing he said has puzzeled me, basically he wouldn't use porcelain tiles in his own house as they are 'nightmare to keep'.
I was quite suprised at this because in every shop I've been in the porcelain tiles are at a minimum 4:1 ration with ceramic tiles...the range just isn't there with ceramics.
I understand that porcelain are harder to lay and obviously more expensive to lay but are ceramics better in general?
What are your experiences with porcelain vs ceramic vrs ceramic tiles?
All advice is welcome!
Thanks!
